'''War Beasts''' are the [[Cabal]]'s frontline attack animals and military hounds used by the [[Red Legion]], [[Imperial Cabal]], and the [[Shadow Legion]].<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Nv8CMiwllo '''YouTube''' - ''Destiny 2 - NEW STRIKE! INVERTED SPIRE!'']</ref>

War Beasts are feral, vicious attack animals deployed by the [[Cabal]] as either shock troops, a distraction, trackers, or as cannon fodder to protect their other forces. These beasts are quick and highly aggressive and will attack any enemy in sight. They are also very tenacious and will not stop until either they or their enemies are dead. They were native to [[Torobatl]].

During the reign of [[Emperor Calus|Emperor Calus]], War Beasts were seen as a revered and respected part of Cabal culture; each one being bred to serve a specific handler from birth and as such, their bond with their handler was unrivaled. However, according to Calus, after he was [[Midnight Coup (event)|ousted]] and [[Dominus Ghaul]] took over the Empire, War Beasts were treated more of a military asset rather than a personal companion. <ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4BVuriiWz94</ref> However due to Calus also using them in the same role with his [[Loyalists]] and later [[Shadow Legion]], such claims are dubious.

*Cabal troops within the [[Red Legion]] and [[Loyalists]] (with the exception of psions) wear bodysuits made from War Beast scales. Additionally, all War Beasts (including Loyalists) have a Red Legion brand on their hind leg. This could be a developer mistake for the latter, or it could be that only the Red Legion uses War Beasts and defectors to the Loyalists take the Beasts with them for additional forces, the brand still remaining.
